Reviewer: Maureen S. O'Brien - - October 16, 2009
Subject: Two valid pronunciations.

Both "sap-i-ent" and "sape-i-unt" are correct pronunciations in American English, as you would find out if you consulted Merriam-Webster.
In my dialectal area, so many dialects mingle that it is nearly essential to pronounce words in all possible ways. If you don't say it both "wash" and "warsh", that is your verbal poverty and not mine. So there. :)
Thanks to everyone for their kind reviews!

Subject: Great Book, slightly annoying reader...

Although the pronouncement of sapient is technicaly correct, the out of context accent use of sapient is mildy annoying. It distracts from of the story and disrupts the atmosphere set by both the author and the reader...
Other than that she's a great reader, and the book itself is great! And it IS free so....5 stars minus 1 for being slightly annoying....

Subject: loved the story one complaint

Despite the constant mispronunciation or sapiens, sapient, and sapien, this reader did a wonderful job telling a fantastic story.

Subject: Most Excellent

I thoroughly enjoyed not only the story but the reader. She does an excellent job with vocal variation and voice differentiation between characters. Very well done interpretation of an obviously classic piece of writing!
